What happens when you know you should store emergency water-but you simply don't have room for dozens of gallons?
Most emergency water advice sounds easy until you live in an apartment, condo, rental, or small home where every bit of storage space already matters.
Emergency Water Without the Storage Space takes a more realistic approach.
Drawing from her firsthand experience living without running water in the Jamaican countryside, V. Rhea combines real-life lessons with practical strategies for building an emergency water supply around the space you actually have.
Inside, you'll learn how to:
- Figure out how much emergency water your household actually needs
- Find overlooked storage space in a small home or apartment
- Choose appropriate containers for storing water
- Separate drinking water from water meant for other uses
- Store and rotate water safely
- Stretch a limited water supply during an outage
- Find useful water sources already around your home
- Understand when and how rainwater may be useful
- Make questionable water safer when appropriate
- Prepare for water shortages during power outages and extreme heat
- Plan for children, pets, and special household needs
- Build a practical emergency water backup in just one weekend
You don't need a basement.
You don't need a garage filled with giant barrels.
And you don't need room for 100 gallons before you can start preparing.
A few gallons. A little knowledge. A backup plan. That's a start.
